Do I need an attorney?

Yes, you need an attorney from BW if you have been hurt due to someone else’s fault or negligence. You can almost guarantee that the other side has attorneys—usually hired by the insurance company—who will do everything they can to make sure you get as little money as possible for your injuries. Do not let them get away with this! Hire BW to fight for you! If you have been hurt, you have nothing to lose by hiring BW and everything to gain. You do not owe us a penny until we get money for you. BW will ensure that you are not taken advantage of by the insurance company. BW will protect your rights and hold the insurance company and its attorneys to account for what was done to maximize your recovery.
